First, look at the handle of your exacto knife and see if it looks like the one in the video. Second, where is the person who claimed the "fame and notoriety"? Got a name?

Not too many scalpels with a blade like that, either. Looks a lot more like the common xacto blade than the common scalpel blade.
What does anybody gain from a hoax? Fame. Notoriety. Since it was stuck in the middle of a TV show, ratings? Ad revenue?

The video says it has been shot down by fighters .. So apparently it was recovered right after the crash?
There are trees laying down and about in the video. There's no wide pan of the scene so it's difficult to make any real determination of this aspect. However there is a part in the clip where one of the people retrieving the craft points to the ground and makes a gesture along the path the craft took to it's resting place.

Does that look like a crash site to you ? Where's the debris field or the smashed up trees seeing as it came in from the treeline judging how it's angled into the virtually undisturbed ground.
Well I guess the shields could of been up and it was shiftingg in and out of phase. So the molecular structure of organics weren't disturbed..or not.

What's a stretch? I merely pointed out that the video is limited in what it shows of the scene. You may be right that Moscow is in full view behind them. I do recall seeing more of this video somewhere and it did show the trucks approaching the site - if I recall correctly. Now that still doesn't make it real or an alien ship. However I just don't see how making a hoax of this magnitude and not gaining anything by it, makes any sense. If this were part of a movie and someone now is being passed off as a real event, then that would be a hoax. Other than that, I would be confused as to their motivation for doing this.

Maybe they were trying to hide all the tracks coming in and out from the equipment. or maybe they used the trees as A-frames to position it. Or maybe they did it in Gorky Park and they didn't want to show half of Moscow in the background. Or maybe they didn't build the underside and tried to hide the fact, Or,or,or, ad nauseum.
Bilk I usually agree with you but this is a stretch unfortunately.
